| Synopsis | Sakigake!! OtokojukuOtokojuku is a private school that gathers misfits and rogues from all over the country and give them radical Spartan education just like military training to polish their manhood to make them a real man. Momotaro Tsurugi、 who has enrolled at Otokojuku、 endures grueling hazing by principal Heihachi Edajima and malicious instructors、 while developing the guts and deep friendship with his fellow first-year students.Momotaro undergoes battles with many opponents: second-year students、 Super Police Academy students from the U.S.、 and a delinquent group called the Kanto Great Student Alliance、 which is Otokojuku’s arch nemesis. He also wages a deadly fight with third-year students、 who have dominated Otokojuku and made a battle expedition around the country. Momotaro and his friends overcome these challenges using their bodies and spirits that have been strengthened through daily training、 and sometimes demonstrating esoteric or apocryphal martial arts techniques. Thus、 Momotaro and others grow to be real men and begin to make new history at Otokojuku.Sakigake!! Otokojuku is based on the manga series by Akira Miyashita serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 1985. Due to its comical elements based on outrageous settings and stories revolving around heated battles、 the manga series became a big hit with the total circulation exceeding 27 million. Thirty four episodes of the anime series aired on the Fuji Television network in 1988. In the same year、 the theatrical film version was also created as the Weekly Shonen Jump’s 20th anniversary project and screened together with the same magazine’s manga-based anime film、 Saint Seiya: Legend of Crimson Youth. |
